The dramatic increase in the scale of residential re-development within Moscow is a fundamental issue at the heart of the city's continuing growth and regeneration. The need to create well designed high density neighbourhoods close to the city centre is a major challenge and an opportunity to help resolve congestion and re-urbanise the city for its residents. The Sugar Factory Masterplan is a perfect exemplar of the type of development that the city requires. JMP's design will deliver buildings at a comfortable human scale in which to live, work and play, avoiding the monotony and industrialised repetition of other similar scaled developments elsewhere in the city.
